Creates crime of victimization of a senior citizen or a person with a disability.

This New Jersey bill (S 489) creates a new criminal offense called "victimization of a senior citizen or person with a disability" when someone commits certain crimes (like assault or theft) against these individuals. It directly affects seniors (62+ years) and people with medically determined disabilities that substantially limit their ability to resist. The key mechanism requires that this new offense be charged separately from the underlying crime, with sentencing one degree higher (e.g., a third-degree crime becomes a second-degree crime for the victimization charge), and mandates separate sentences for both offenses. The bill defines "senior citizen" as 62+ and "person with a disability" as someone with a pre-existing impairment making them substantially unable to resist.
